Agency
A Wyoming seller tells their listing agent, 'I won't accept any offers from out-of-state buyers.' The agent should:
AFollow the seller's instructions as they are the client
BExplain that refusing offers based on buyer origin may be permissible, but refusing based on protected characteristics would violate fair housing law✓ Correct
CImmediately withdraw from the listing
DReport the seller to the WREC
Explanation
Buyer origin (out-of-state) is not a protected class under fair housing law, so refusing out-of-state offers alone may be permissible (though commercially unusual). However, the agent should ensure the instructions are not a pretext for discrimination based on national origin or other protected classes.
